Calendar of the Sun 27 Yulmonath Frey and Freya's Day Colours: Green and Gold Element: Earth Altar: Upon cloth of green and gold place gilded sheaves of wheat, gilded and silvered flowers, gilded nuts, sugared fruits, corn dollies and straw Yule ornaments, a chalice of mead and a horn of beer, and figures of Frey and Freya. Offerings: Love. Ritual sex is appropriate on this day. Daily Meal: Vegetarian, with sweets, nuts, fruits, and bread. Invocation to Frey and Freya Holy sister and brother, Lady and Lord of the Vanir, Golden of hair as the fields of wheat Who bring riches of heart and hearth To noble and common folk alike You are the security wealth can buy And the happiness it cannot. Lord Frey, Corn God Warrior without a weapon Who gave his sword for love, You who make the grain spring forth, Show us faith in every harvest. Bless the bonds of those whose love Binds them to land, to hearth, To commitment of permanence, O God whose wedding was cursed and blessed.
Lady Freya, warrior woman, Chooser of the slain warriors, Teacher of magick and mysteries, Mistress of Seidhr and mother of jewels, Love Goddess and Lady of Springtime, Flowers scattered in your footsteps, Unashamed of love and pleasure, Help us to remember That there are many kinds of wealth. Bless us, Frey and Freya, Most precious gems of Vanaheim, With the gold of next year's grain and sun. Song: Golden One (The mead is poured out as a libation for Freya, and the beer for Frey.)
